6 Remove any thermal grease residue from the processor using a soft cloth and
isopropyl alcohol.
7 Place new thermal grease on the processor. Use only enough to cover the CPU die.
8 Make sure a thermal pad is placed between the main cooling assembly and other
components as shown.
9 Insert the new main cooling assembly into the notebook.
10 Tighten the screws that secure the main cooling assembly to the system board. Use
the numbers stamped in the metal next to each screw and tighten the screws in
numerical order (start with 1, then 2, then 3, then 4, then 5).
11 Replace the cooling assembly bay cover, then tighten the cover screws.
Caution
When tightening the main cooling assembly’s screws into the numbered
holes, tighten them in numerical order.
